I loved it because the main characters were mature and had lived a bit. There has to be something good about getting older.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I also love stories about second chances. Persuasion is my second favorite JA story (that letter! Sigh!!!). I have not seen Last Tango in Halifax and will have to do so. I have read many of the stories listed and enjoyed them. Several are on my kindle waiting for me to get to them. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the suggestions.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Love is a force both potent and fragile. It has the ability to create joy and communion or anger and desperation. Love binds us, builds us, but can also tear us down. So why do we pursue it? Why is love the thing most of us seek?</div><div></div><div></div><div>For a successful second chance at love, you both need to be willing to work on yourselves individually, and as a couple. Whether this means being more honest about your feelings or finding a couples therapist, the point here is intentionally taking care of yourself, which in turn will take care of the relationship.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Second chances are a part of life, regardless of what the world tells you. Whether you take the chance on yourself and your partner, or just you solo, you have exciting adventures ahead! I know there is no greater challenge than that of the heart, and in the end, it will all be worth it.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Few humans have a heart for sick, old, troubled or intimidating dogs. Few dare to take on the challenge these animals present. Few realize that, if given the chance, there is certain hope for these tragically misunderstood animals.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Kyro Dean owns and is the creative director for Vanilla Grass Writing Resources and Eight Moons Publishing, LLC.

His ex-wife, now a Hollywood starlet, has descended upon Point Perry for her movie premiere, stirring up trouble and putting Tom's priorities to the test. As the town buzzes with excitement over the event, Tom must also navigate a strained relationship with his father and protect his son from his ex's manipulations.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Despite their emotional scars and obstacles, Erin and Tom can't ignore their growing connection. As they begin to explore the chance for a future together, they must confront their past traumas and find a way to move forward. Will their love be enough to overcome the challenges they face, or will their emotional baggage prove too heavy to bear?</div><div></div><div></div><div>These pictures document the wedding we planned in seven short weeks. The day was perfectly imperfect and most importantly, full of love. The thing is, divorce fundamentally changes (as it should) what marriage means. It also puts the monstrosity that is planning a wedding into perspective. We decided there would be no place settings, programs, or registry for our wedding. We kept the guest list small and spent money where it mattered to us: food and photography.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Beautiful story Kate, beautiful love you guys have. I am so happy for you! And reading your post reminded me of my own true love and that makes me think you will have all of the deep experiences of growing closer over time like I have had, and that makes me even more happy for you because its fucking awesome.</div><div></div><div></div><div>When I was dating my husband John, boyfriend then, I felt my soul awakened. It was an unexplainable feeling. I have been in love before, but this feeling was very different. I am older and knew exactly what I wanted this time around.</div><div></div><div></div><div>One of the most important themes in Persuasion is the idea of a second chance at love or needing to wait until it is the right time to be with someone you love. This manifests in the romance between the main characters, Anne Elliot and Captain Wentworth. The plot of the novel revolves around an event that happened eight years before the story takes place, where Anne and Captain Wentworth fell in love but it was not the right time for them to be together. They wanted to marry each other, but Wentworth had no fortune or guarantee that he could gain a fortune then rise up through the ranks and Anne believed that it was to his advantage not to marry her (Austen, 20-21). So, it was clearly not the right time for them to marry even though they loved each other. They needed to wait until they were both in better positions to be with each other. In the end, they both receive a second chance at their love because they were able to wait until it was the right moment to be together; Wentworth has received a fortune and rank in the Navy and Anne is no longer influenced by her family so they are able to be together.</div><div></div><div></div><div>There are two unique elements in this Augustana love story. The first is the couple met because of their inspired, distinctive, commitment to serve others. The second is that the young man happened to be Augustana President Dr. Bill Nelsen, and the woman, a community social worker named Margaret Rossow.</div><div></div><div></div><div>What it's about: When current fifth wheel Margot agrees to tour a wedding venue with her engaged friends, she doesn't expect to run into newly divorced wedding planner Olivia, Margot's childhood friend and first love who she hasn't seen in a decade. A series of mishaps leaves Olivia without a place to stay, and out of the goodness in her heart, and maybe because of the sparks still between them, Margot offers her spare room, hoping this time doesn't end in disaster.</div><div></div><div></div><div>What it's about: When Kian gets a text from his ex, Hudson, asking to met, he's hoping for an apology. Instead what he gets is a proposition for a fake relationship, just while his parents are in town, to help Hudson preserve appearances. Plus, Kian might get the chance to meet some big names in media if he goes as Hudson's plus-one to the wedding of the season... But as their real feelings reemerge in their fake relationship, they're both going to have to face up to the truth.</div><div></div><div></div><div>What it's about: Siena is going to break up with her longtime boyfriend, Patrick. After all, college is quickly approaching, and she's not sure staying together is the best idea. But right before she gets the chance, Patrick announces his family is moving out of state, and Siena assumes that along the way, their relationship will naturally end due to time and distance. But the more time that passes, and the more visits they have with each other, she begins to see a different side of him, and starts to fall in love all over again.</div><div></div><div></div><div>What it's about: It's the classic love story. Boy meets girl. Boy and girl fall for each other. Girl dies. Boy gets sent back in time to when they first meet. Boy and girl fall for each other. Girl still dies. Over and over, Jack keeps being sent back in time, altering his actions to try to save Kate. But altering his choices means risking the safety of other loved ones in his life, and Jack has to decide if Kate is worth the risk. </div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>For me, an incredibly important element of a second chance romance is the right amount of backstory, with a true sense of the past love. The inclusion backstory really contributes to the degree of difficulty in writing this kind of romance. Given how some people hate prologues in their romance, being judicious in the past storytelling while avoiding infodumps that get boring is the needle to thread.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I really want to get a glimpse into those halcyon days of yore. I really want to feel like these people had it, and let it slip through their fingers somehow. Characters tearing themselves apart with lingering feelings of love (and perhaps lust!) against their better judgment are my favorite! The characters put up walls to protect themselves from that past pain and we get to watch them crumble.</div><div></div><div></div><div>A second-chance romance is a fiction sub-genre where love is given a second chance. For instance, this could be a couple who once had a thriving relationship and it goes sour. Are they brave enough to try with each other again, and can they revive what they once had?</div><div></div><div></div><div>Leaving you Behind is a paranormal ghost romance about a young grief-stricken widow who vows to never love another for the remainder of her life. She meets a successful bachelor who wonders if he can successfully tear down the protective wall encasing her heart.</div><div></div><div></div><div>With a firm belief in life after death, we may question if our loved ones remain nearby, watching over us like a guardian angel while we grieve? Are they always there beside us, unseen? Would they want us to live the remainder of our days alone?</div><div></div><div></div><div>I can think of no greater love, other than the love of our Lord, than to want someone to move forward after suffering such a loss and live their remaining days in the company of another. Even though some may choose to remain single after a tragedy, everyone deserves a second chance at companionship and happiness.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Several of our fellow mentor couples are in blended marriages, which is a great example of second-chance romance in action. Not only have they healed from their past and opened their hearts to find love again, but they use their experience to bless others. They are wonderful examples, working with other struggling couples, to show them that second-chances in romance are indeed possible.</div><div></div><div></div><div>We also believe in second chances at love because God does. His love never fails, and He gives us chance after chance to be in a loving relationship with Him. Even if we make the decision to turn toward him in our last moment on earth, He receives us with love.</div><div></div><div> 9738318194</div>
